Cryosols
Cryosols – permafrost – occupy a unique part of the earth and have properties greatly different from other soils. They also occur where the greatest impact of global warming is predicted. This is the first book bring together the leading researchers in the area of permafrost soils to produce a review of the geography, cryogenic soil forming processes, ecological processes, classification and use of soils that are affected by permafrost.
The Soils of Antarctica
This book divides Antarctica into eight ice-free regions and provides information on the soils of each region. Soils have been studied in Antarctica for nearly 100 years. Although only 0.35% (45,000 km2) of Antarctica is ice-free, its weathered, unconsolidated material qualify as “soils”. Soils of Antarctica is richly illustrated with nearly 150 images and provisional maps are provided for several key ice-free areas.
Recent Advances in Analytical Spectroscopy
Recent Advances in Analytical Spectroscopy covers the joint meeting of the Ninth International Conference on Atomic Spectroscopy and the 22nd Colloquium Spectroscopicum Internationale, held at the New Otani Hotel and Sophia University, Tokyo, Japan, on September4-8, 1981. The joint meeting features 446 including 74 invited lectures and 39 poster sessions. This book is divided into 26 chapters, which reflect the analytical spectroscopic topics covered in 20 sessions, including plasma emission spectrometry, DC arc, spark and other emission spectrometry, and hydride generation technique for atomic spectrometry. Other chapters deal with furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, Zeeman atomic absor...
Molecular Biology of Receptors and Transporters: Pumps, Transporters and Channels
This multi-volume set within International Review of Cytology encompasses the recent advances in the understanding of structure-function relationships at the molecular level of receptors, transporters, and membrane proteins. Several diverse families of membrane receptors/proteins are discussed with respect to the molecular and cellular biology of their synthesis, assembly, turnover, and function. Included are such receptor superfamilies as G-proteins, immunoglobulins, ligand-gated receptors, interleukins, and tyrosine kinases as well as such transporter/protein families as pumps, ion channels, and bacterial transporters. Each section of each volume features a "perspectives/commentary" chapter which includes comments on the recent advances and predictions on new directions. Written by acknowledged experts in the field, this volume, 137C, highlights recent developments in pumps, channels, and transporters. - The latest on several important protein families, including: - The G-protein-coupled receptors - The interleukin receptors - Sugar transporters - Several ion channels and pumps
Behavioral Biology
This book is the result of an international symposium in biological psychology, held in honor of Knut Larsson. This renowned researcher -- in his search for the true meaning of "mind vs. matter" -- became involved in many divergent areas of the field, such as the neurobiology of sexual behavior and sexual differentiation, aspects of functional neuroanatomy, behavioral endocrinology, and psychopharmacology. Through experimentation and much consultation with other area specialists, Larsson observed such phenomena as the adaptation of behavior-determining neuroendocrine events to the physical environment and the hormonal regulation of sexual behavior and differentiation. This tribute to his research presents important features of necessary paradigms for the analysis and study of experimental psychology within the biological perspective.
Cultures of Curriculum
This txtbk presents the concept of curriculum as culture-a system of implicit & explicit beliefs, values, behaviors, & customs in classrooms & schools. Goal is to foster awareness, examination, & deliberation about the curricula planned for & carried out
